MANAMA (Bahrain) - This amazing FIBA 3x3 World Tour 2025 season comes down to the grand decider at the Manama Final on November 21-22.
The best teams from an absolutely monster regular season will be fighting for the crown and that just means the draw is absolutely stacked with talent in what will surely be the best-ever World Tour Final. Once again, Ub (SRB) are the No.1 seed but there are no easy games in Manama with the Serbs facing rejuvenated Riffa (BRN) and Vienna (AUT) in a tough Pool A. Ub once again won the most titles after reeling off an insane stretch of five dubs in six events but have cooled off recently.
Riffa's struggled for much of the season before they turned things around and they will be firm fan favorites, while Vienna have been more low-key but are title winners this season.
No.2 Miami (USA) again have been flying the flag for hoops power USA and they've been mighty consistent to become Ub's biggest threat. The Americans face in Pool B a pair of Chinese teams who have gone up a level in 2025 - Chongming (CHN) and Hangzhou (CHN).
They may not have broken through for titles on the WT 2025, but those Chinese powers could well walk away with the big prize if they get rolling.
You just knew Amsterdam RABOBANK (NED) would not go the entire regular season without a title. They did leave it incredibly late before finally coming through at the final stop in Bucharest where superstar Worthy de Jong wound back the clock with an MVP effort.
The No.3 seed have renewed confidence and they will need to be on from the get go in Pool C against Raudondvaris Hoptrans (LTU), who have a title under their belt this season, and the Stefan Milivojevic-led Partizan (SRB).
Past World Tour winners Liman (SRB) did what they've done continually over the past decade and qualify for the big dance. They still have incredible aura and will start favorite in Pool D featuring Toulouse (FRA), who just haven't reached their early season heights.
The third team in Pool D will emerge from QD, where surprise title winners Skyliners (GER) and Lugano HANDONG (SUI) are expected to fight it out. But don't discount Seef (BRN) who will have plenty of fan support on their side.
